Bluey is a preschool-targeted Australian animated TV show that first aired on ABC Kids on 1 October 2018. Developed by Joe Brumm in partnership with Queensland's Ludo Studio, the narrative follows Bluey, a lively and imaginative six-year-old Blue Heeler puppy. Bluey shares her adventures with her father Bandit, mother Chilli, and younger sister Bingo, all of whom engage in creative play together.[1] The characters depict a range of dog breeds, some modeled after pets from Brumm's own childhood.[2] The series highlights themes such as familial support, Australian lifestyle, and the significance of play during early development.[1][3][4] Set in Brisbane, Queensland, this production was jointly commissioned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the British Broadcasting Corporation, with BBC Studios managing worldwide distribution and merchandising rights.[1] In 2019, Disney secured the rights for international broadcast.[5]

Since its launch, Bluey has released 154 episodes over three seasons, including special holiday installments like "Verandah Santa" and "Christmas Swim," as well as an Easter-themed episode and a Father's Day special titled "Perfect."[6][7][8][9] The third season introduced a unique 28-minute episode called "The Sign."[10] Additionally, short "Minisodes" ranging from one to three minutes have been broadcast throughout 2024.[11][12] A feature film adaptation was announced in December 2024 and is scheduled for global release in 2027; following this project, Brumm plans to step down.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name

In 2021, director Richard Jeffery received an Australian Directors' Guild Award for the episode "Sleepytime," which also earned the 2022 Prix Jeunesse International Award in the TV – Up to 6 Years Fiction (Children's) category.[13][14] Composer Joff Bush was nominated for APRA Screen Music Awards for his work on "Teasing" (2019) and "Flat Pack" (2020).[15][16] The episode "Cricket" garnered praise from sports media outlets.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad nameCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad nameCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name Some episodes have been transformed into picture books, including "The Beach," which won both the Australian Book Industry Awards for Book of the Year and Children's Picture Book of the Year (Ages 0–6) in 2020.[17][18] The series is also available on DVD in Australia via BBC Studios' distribution.[19]
